Scotiabank, in the Algo Centre Mall in Elliot Lake, is expected to open Friday or Monday, says Joe Konecny, Scotiabank spokesperson.

Konecny says it was hoped the bank would open today, Thursday, but that did not happen.

The branch has been closed since Aug. 14 due to water problems.

"It was a leaky roof, and as a precaution we closed the bank," said Konecny, in an earlier interview.

To assist customers, four staff members were reported to be outside the bank to help them use the bank's automatic teller machines (ATMs) and with other tasks.

Customers can use alternate channels to do their banking such as checking their accounts at www.scotiabank.com or by calling 1-800- 267-1234 or 848-3068. The last number will be redirected to the Scotiabank Spanish branch.
